The Concubine Strikes Back: The Marquis Insists on Me to Be His Wife

Seeing that there was no one to serve in the room, he poured a glass of water for the woman on the bed and asked, "Madam, are you okay?"

"Who are you? Are you...are you...the midwife hired by my husband?" The one who spoke was the woman lying on the bed. She was in so much pain that she didn't have the strength to speak.

"Madam, please stop talking and save your strength for the birth. I am a doctor. Madam, please drink some water first. I will check your pulse. Ruxue, please feed this lady."

Su Qing handed the teacup to Ruxue, then placed her slender fingers on the lady's wrist.

The lady on the bed had some strength after Ruxue fed her some water. She took a look at Su Qing's hair bun, which was already the lady's hair bun, and said, "Thank you for checking my pulse, madam. It may be that the baby is too big, which caused the difficult birth. Can I give birth to it? Please tell me, madam."

The moment Su Qing felt the pulse, her brows furrowed. Judging from the pulse, this baby might not be easy to give birth to! But Su Qing didn't dare to say it. The fetus was in an abnormal position and the baby was too big. If it were in modern times, a caesarean section would be necessary, and a natural birth would be impossible. But in ancient times, all births were natural births, so how could there be a caesarean section?

"Madam, don't worry. I have a piece of excellent ginseng here. Can you ask the kitchen to boil it and give it to you to boost your energy? Madam is weak right now and must use ginseng to keep her healthy."

"Okay, Madam, have someone take it to the kitchen and tell them it's my order. They will make it for me."

"Madam, please close your eyes and rest first. I~~my master has already sent someone to get the midwife. Madam, there is no need to worry." Su Qing wanted to say her husband, but she remembered that Jiang Weiyang had instructed her not to call him that in public, so she had to change it to master!

"Aunt~ Madam, please give me the ginseng. My mother will take it to the kitchen." Ruxue wanted to call her aunt, but due to etiquette she still called her madam, because it was impossible for the master to take an aunt out. Once they called her aunt, people would think they were rude!

Su Qing looked at Ruxue. How could she not know what Ruxue was thinking when she called out like that? She didn't say anything either.

"Just ask Rumei to deliver it. There's one in the medicine box."

Rumei just stepped into the house and asked, "But do you want to send anything?"

"There is a ginseng in the medicine box. Send it to the kitchen and tell them that their wife asked us to boil it and give it to their wife. Our wife wants to use the ginseng to boost the energy of the lady in bed."

"I see. I'll go right away."

Not long after Rumei left, the shopkeeper came in with the midwife.

"Thank you for taking care of my wife for me."

"You are too polite, boss. I am a doctor. I am just worried about your wife, so I came to see her."

"Oh? The distinguished guest is actually a doctor?" The shopkeeper naturally didn't believe it because Su Qing was so young and a woman.

"Shopkeeper, don't you believe me? I also run a pharmacy in Huayang. I just passed by here with my master. I am the disciple of Divine Doctor Liao!"

Grandpa Liao must be very famous in the world, so why not use it?

"What? But Liao Zu, the Divine Doctor Liao?"

"Hmm? You know? No, I mean don't you know? My master is seeing patients in my pharmacy right now."

Su Qing didn't know how to make up for it, and almost let it slip. Is Grandpa Liao really that famous?

"I know, of course I know, you are really amazing, aren't you? Divine Doctor Liao is an old immortal! It is said that he can even bring back people who have entered the gates of hell!"
